OK, I thought this was going to be an easy one. Apparently I was wrong. I
have an Epson Perfection 1650 USB scanner chosen partially because it is
supported by SANE under Linux. I am running Mandrake 8.1 which has USB
support. But the scanner does not show up in /dev/usb, though usbview
shows it as present. And, of course, it doesn't show up --- nothing does
--- in sane-find-scanner run as root.
I downloaded and installed the latest versions of sane (1.0.6) and xsane
(0.83) to no avail.
Help! I have been through the newbie and expert email archives and found
nothing that seems relevant. Where do I look next? Anybody got a spare clue
for me?
